Tiger Milk Protein Bar Or Amy's Indian gluten-free Burrito, Any Idea Which One Is The Problem?

I ate an Amy"s burrito and a tiger milk bar that I thought was gluten-free. I ate the burrito yesterday. I had a terrible reaction this afternoon. I am trying to figure out the source. Grr. So are tiger milks all gluten-free? What do you know and I'm thinking the spice may have done a number on me as well. I had an extra cup of coffee with almond milk as well. I despise when I can't figure out the problem. What are your thoughts?

 

Also does taking an Imodium the day before make a reaction worse? I just took two more Imodium as well. I hate taking the stuff.

 

How do you get back on track asap and leave reactions behind?

Are you sure the burrito was gluten free.  She makes a few varieties including organic and gluten free.  All sold in the same area.

I was about to say the same thing.  One time I bought a handful of their gluten-free burritos (which are awesome by the way) and almost bought a regular burrito that had gotten stuck in there.  Also the stockers at my store like to shove the gluten version in the gluten-free spot when they aren't paying attention, especially with brands that have a gluten-free/non-gluten-free version that look similar this could definitely cause a mixup.

 

I looked up the tigers milk bars online and was only able to find very outdated information that said only some of their flavors are gluten-free.  I would write the company to check in on that.  If they are made on the same line as bars containing gluten, there could be a CC possibility.

 

And then, like you said, it could also be just from eating food that is not your norm.  Hope you are able to bounce back soon.  I am unable to advise on how to bounce back, I get atypical reactions.

Other people here have been sickened by Amy's.  Although that company makes gluten-free products, they also make non-gluten-free and from what I have read, they are all made in the same facility.

      Canker sores

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Studies have shown that individuals with canker sores tend to have lower levels of vitamin D in their blood compared to those without the condition. This suggests that vitamin D deficiency could be a risk factor for developing canker sores.  Vitamin D deficiency is very common in Celiac Disease.

      Cartilage and rib pain.

      So Sunday night after writing that post about Losartan was causing weakness in my hips I decided to stop taking it, even if against medical advice.  When I was 12 years old I read a book called The First Hundred Years of Surgery.  It gave me insight to the politics, financials and egos of the world.  My take-away at the time was: one day I'm going to have to find my own cure. Sunday 6 am was 134/60 after Losartan dose Sat nignt. Monday 8 am BP was 118/56 no Losartan sunday night. Tuesday (today) 6 am BP was 126/64. Getting up from the floor is improved. Brain fog improved, vision less foggy, cold feet not as cold, and not feeling like I need to go back to sleep almost as soon as I wake up. Doctors are required to follow protocols, not listen to patients.  I say I hurt and they say "that's not common, the medicine protects you, is good for you, keep taking it"  Not unlike Celiac Disease.  You eat gluten, get sick and your blood and biopsy says you do not have Celiac Disease, you are not sick.  Keep eating wheat because it is good for you. Despite what the doctors say, it appears ACE inhibiters and ARB BP meds are NOT good for me.  One had me considering a walker would be good (it had me bent over).  Standing straight once I stopped.  One had me thinking a walker was in my future (lost quadracept stability in knees, Lisinoprol caused an inquinal hernia, something caused a blind spot in my right eye and cataracts in both.  Amlodipine dehydrated me so I could not wear contacts, Losartan I was thinking a walker or wheelchair is immenent, hips and lower back getter weaker.  My only vision issue at 70 was increasing nearsighted and farsighted; until we attempted to control my BP. I am not advocating ignoring medical advice, but sometimes I know what is better for me than what the protocols say.  After all, I live in this body.  Doctors only see me for 20 minutes every 3 months. My current list: Medications: Prednisolone 2.5 mg 6 am Clonidine 0.1 mg 6 am, 2pm, 10 pm Rosuvastatin 20 mg evening meal Glimiperide 2 mg morning meal, evening meal Nicotinic Acid (Niacin) 6 am, 2 pm, 10 pm Liquid Iodine 600 mcg once a day in a drink.   Vitamins:  Several times a week. B1 250 mg, B2 100 mg, B3 500 mg, B5 500 mg, B6 100 mg, B12 1 mg, DHEA 100 mg, vitamin D 250 mcg, vitamin C 500 mg, CoQ10 200 mg, Selenium 200 mcg Taurine 500 mg,

      Is it common to develop a wheat allergy in addition to Celiac Disease?

      By Stephanie Wakeman · Posted

      Wow, thank you for share Elisal!  We do need to stay focused on the fact we are so much healthier without wheat and gluten as hard as it is! I've learned to love rice and almond flour based sweets and enjoy the corn and plantain chips as my go to salty snacks!

      By ElisaL · Posted

      IDK how common it is but it does happen. I'm celiac, allergic, and intolerant to the fiber in grains. (Fodmaps) So not only do I get sick from cross contamination, also gluten free wheat statch/fiber, and beauty products with wheat will get me. While I don't stop breathing the full body hives and short breath are not fun. Then once I make through that me and the bathroom become reacquaint. Sigh if I didn't feel so much better with the restrictions on my diet I'd feel sorry for myself. Least it makes for some good jokes about how the gremlin that lives in my gut really hates wheat.
